I stumbled upon these {almost forgotten} pictures that we took during our last visit to NYC and thought I must share. Seeing these food pictures made me really hungry and I miss the variety of cuisines that NYC has to offer. I don’t know about you, but once I eat something that I absolutely love, I crave it and dream about it until I can have it again {usually happens quite often!}. If you’re a foodie and in New York for at least 3 days, I highly recommend you go to these places to chow down. They stole my heart, I’m sure they’ll steal yours too… Ole!

1. Ippudo – This is a place is for serious ramen eaters. Considered to be Japan’s version of “Soul food” it beckons people from all over the world to try their tasty, addictive and flavorful ramen soup. I’m obsessed with this place!

2. Magnolia Bakery – Stop by the {original} bakery located in the charming West Village neighborhood. This popular bakery is known for their delicious cupcakes, cakes and cookies & is the perfect place to pop in after shopping for a sweet treat.

3. Chelsea Market – This incredible block-long marketplace is a playground for grown ups. With its assortment of shops, retailers and great food, Chelsea Market belongs on every itinerary.

4. Jacques Torres Chocolate – Known as Mr. Hot Chocolate, Jacques Torres has become famous for this confectionery delight {Psst! Try the Wicked hot chocolate}. If you’re craving a decadent hot chocolate & a gigantic warm cookie, this is the place for you!

5. Ovest Pizzoteca – You can’t go to NYC and not enjoy a slice of pizza {it would be a sin}. Located in the Chelsea district, this pizzotecca offers killer pizza pies & more. Set in a rustic and laid back setting, this is the perfect place to enjoy lunch!
